Right to the city and socio-urban integration in the popular neighborhoods of Tandil. Analysis of public policies aimed at the urbanization of precarious settlements in an intermediate city in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina

Abstract

In the last two decades, an increase in urban informality has been observed in the city of Tandil, which translated into both the increase in the number of popular neighborhoods and the growth of existing ones. However, different socio-urban integration works have recently been carried out that have generated an improvement in the living conditions of the population. The objective of the work is to analyze the public policies aimed at the urbanization of popular neighborhoods in Tandil, province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. For this, the position that the municipal government has taken in the face of the land occupations that have occurred in recent years and the actions generated by the provincial and national States will be considered. Regarding the methodology, data from different public records will be used, as well as journalistic sources and information collected in different instances of field work.
